PCOS (polycystic o***y syndrome) is now referred to as PMOS (polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome).

The condition does not just affect the ovaries, but multiple systems (endocrine, metabolic, and reproductive) within the body. It changes how the body responds to insulin which eventually leads to significant changes in testosterone levels in the body.
